Shakesqueer – A Queer Companion to the Complete Works of Shakespeare de Madhavi Menon

Shakesqueer – A Queer Companion to the Complete Works of Shakespeare: Series Q

Autor Madhavi Menon
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 ian 2011
Shakesqueer puts the most exciting queer theorists in conversation with the complete works of William Shakespeare. Exploring what is odd, eccentric, and unexpected in the Bard’s plays and poems, these theorists highlight not only the many ways that Shakespeare can be queered, but also the many ways that Shakespeare can enrich queer theory. This innovative anthology reveals an early modern playwright insistently returning to questions of language, identity, and temporality, themes central to contemporary queer theory. Since many of the contributors do not study early modern literature, Shakesqueer takes queer theory back and brings Shakespeare forward, challenging the chronological confinement of queer theory to the last two hundred years. The book also challenges conceptual certainties that have narrowly equated queerness with homosexuality. Chasing all manner of stray desires through every one of Shakespeare’s plays and poems, the contributors cross temporal, animal, theoretical, and sexual boundaries with abandon. Claiming adherence to no one school of thought, the essays consider The Winter’s Tale alongside network TV, Hamlet in relation to the death drive, King John as a history of queer theory, and Much Ado About Nothing in tune with a Sondheim musical. Together they expand the reach of queerness and queer critique across chronologies, methodologies, and bodies.Contributors: Matt Bell; Amanda Berry; Daniel Boyarin; Judith Brown; Steven Bruhm; Peter Coviello; Julie Crawford; Drew Daniel; Mario DiGangi; Lee Edelman; Jason Edwards; Aranye Fradenburg; Carla Freccero; Daniel Juan Gil; Jonathan Goldberg; Jody Greene; Stephen Guy-Bray; Ellis Hanson; Sharon Holland; Cary Howie; Lynne Huffer; Barbara Johnson; Hector Kollias; James Kuzner; Arthur L.

Recenzii

“What happens when queer theory gets into bed with Shakespeare? A play in forty-eight acts, this spirited group production never ceases to entertain and surprise with its queer cast of characters: virgins, eunuchs, and lechers; queens, kings, and pageboys; tyrants, assassins, and killjoys; lions, tigers, and bears—oh my! Full of toil and trouble, wit and wisdom, Shakesqueer succeeds where few other edited collections do: it puts the play back in playwright, and the fun back in theory.” Diana Fuss, Princeton University“The adventurous essays in Shakesqueer demonstrate that queer theory does indeed need Shakespeare, if only to defy rumours of its own demise: the essays show what is vital about a queer studies that might have been thought by this point too domesticated or reified or ‘fixed’ to be intellectually vibrant.” Carolyn Dinshaw, author of Getting Medieval: Sexualities and Communities, Pre- and Postmodern
